      Recently found these colourful guys. Don’t know much about them other than harmless (no sting etc).

        @motojobobo wow those are so neat looking.

        I found these wings outside the other morning. No thorax, head, antennas, etc to be seen.

            This little git has been buzzing around the house for days, unable to find and make use of one of the many open windows to escape, and generally being a PITA whenever we were cooking. The dog just discovered his corpse under the coffee table.

            Kinda beautiful their iridescent colouring when you can get a good look.

              Me guess would be a racoon or feral cat.

                        Accidentally caught this little guy - he must’ve snuck in when I was winding. Now released.

                                Arachnid, I know. Sue me.

                                The insect is probably what’s getting eaten.

                                          in the last nights we've had hornets out here by my cottage. they were busy with other insects but quite peaceful to us, as long as you did not inadvertently grab anything they are sitting on. my love was stung by one into her hand. it did hurt but less than from a wasp she said. had to cool it for the evening and it felt itchy for another day. this fellow here like our candle, fortunately always kept distance to the flame.
